VACATION

Our swim team (www.lgactwisters.com) is on Spring Vacation. After an exhilarating short course season the Corona Twisters are ready for a break. I coach this group of competitive 5-10 year old swimmers at the Flushing Meadows Olympic sized swimming pool. (The Corona Group is part of our much larger team, which inhabits two pools.) We'll rest for two weeks to get ready for the onset of long course season (50 meter). Coming off short course (25 yard) the Corona Group has broken two Twister Team Records and are holding 5 spots in the Metro Top Ten. These Corona Twisters are beginning to find their push and pull in the water, and are getting a nibble of what "achievement" tastes like.

Myself, their coach, I am spending the vacation nesting (I sound like a bird rather than a mermaid) and thinking of new ways to challenge these little swimmers, to reach new goals, and to embrace infinite possibilities.
